HOWARD HENRY of Pettis town.
ship showed US, one day this week,
a portion of bone of the human
thigh that was recently taken from
a mound in Knox county, two
miles north of Greensburg. There
are six of these mounds near to-
gether, and range in a line nearly
north and south. White-oak trees
thirty inches in diameter are
growing upon them. The skeleton
of which this bone was part, was
discovered by parties digging in
to the mound, and was protected
by an arch of stone. The mounds
are supposed tc be the burial
places of prominent chiefs of
Indian tribes that fourished
centuries ago.

PARKERSBURG. w. VA. Dec

PARKERsBURG, w. VA, Dec. L.
A decision just made by Judge
Stuart, of the Circuit Court, in a
case now pending, is regarded as
significant in connection with the
approaching contest between Faulk-
ner and Lucas for the United States
Senate. at the called session of
the legislature, which elected Faux
ner, law was passed giving the
right to the prosecuting attorney, in
certain cases, to strike off two from
the list of jurors. Judge Stuart has
decided this unconstitutional, on the
ground that the session being a call
ed one, and this subject not special
ly mentioned by the governor in the
call, could not be legfslated upon.
The constitution of West Virginia
prohibits matter not especially men
toned in the call from being acted
upon at special sessions. AS moth
ing was baid about electing a sena.
tor, the election of Faulkner is re.
garded in the same light.

SAD OCCURRENCE.-On last Thurs
day, Mrs. Warner Murphy, living on
Back Creek, while laboring under an
attack of insanity, attempted to cut
her husbands throat with razor,
which she had in some way gotten
possession of. She inflicted cash
across his throat, barely missing the
jugular vein. Mr. Murphy is doing well
and will recover. The occurrence is
particularly sad, as Mrs. Murphy is
comparatively young woman, and up
to the time of her unfortunate aff1ic-
ton, most estimable one, and de-
voted wife. Mr.. and Mrs. Murphy
had always lived most atfectionately
together, and no cause of estrange-
ment ever existed between them.
Yesterday she was sent by her friends
to the asylum, at Weston, for treat
menr, where it is hoped she will soon
recover her health and mind.-States-

A good deal of local matter came
too late and will have to 60 over for
the next issue. So with a number Of
advertisements. Our advertising COL
umns are beginning to be crowded,
with HOME ADvERTIsING,a land very lit
tie foreign stuff. The reason is found
in remark of one of our merchants,

The HERALD number of new custo-

IT." THE HERALD circulates among
the people who deal with home mer-
chants.
